Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a measuring cylinder, in particular to a measuring cylinder used for measuring rice. Background Art

[0002] Rice measuring cylinder is used to measure rice in daily life. The scale lines marked on its outside can accurately measure the rice. Reasonable measurement can cook better rice.

[0003] Cooking rice and whole grains together is a recommended healthy eating habit. Whole grains are rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as B vitamins, calcium, iron, and zinc, while rice mainly provides carbohydrates. Pairing whole grains with rice can complement each other and provide more comprehensive nutrition.

[0004] The accurate ratio of rice and whole grains is the key to a healthy diet. The current rice measuring cylinder can only measure rice and whole grains one after another. It is difficult to make an intuitive and simple comparison between the two when measuring, especially for the elderly, which increases the difficulty of operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a measuring cylinder for measuring rice, which is convenient for measuring two different types of rice or measuring one type of rice plus one type of coarse grain, and is convenient for comparing the measured amounts.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a measuring cylinder for measuring rice, which includes a transparent cylindrical cylinder with a bottom, a transparent vertical partition is provided in the middle of the cylinder, and the vertical partition divides the inner cavity of the cylinder into a first cavity and a second cavity. The upper end of the cylinder is provided with an axle seat at the left and right ends of the vertical partition, and the axle seat is provided with an axle hole. A meniscus is hingedly provided between the two axle seats, and the meniscus is configured to cover the first cavity or the second cavity by rotation. Scale marks are provided on the outside of the cylinder, and the left half of the scale marks extends to the left side of the transparent vertical partition, and the right half extends to the right side of the transparent vertical partition.

[0007] Preferably, notches are provided at both ends of the meniscus, and a rotating shaft is provided on the side of the notch parallel to the shaft seat, and the rotating shaft is rotatably provided in the shaft hole.

[0021] The following is a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] In the present invention, unless otherwise stated, directional words contained in terms such as "up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside" merely represent the orientation of the term in normal usage, or are common names understood by those skilled in the art, and should not be regarded as limitations on the term.

[0023] See also Figure 1-4 The measuring cylinder shown is for measuring rice, which includes a transparent cylindrical body 1 with a bottom, a transparent vertical partition 2 is provided in the middle of the body 1, and the vertical partition 2 divides the inner cavity of the body 1 into a first cavity and a second cavity. The upper end of the body 1 is provided with an axle seat 4 at the left and right ends of the vertical partition 2, and the axle seat 4 is provided with an axle hole. A meniscus 5 is hingedly provided between the two axle seats 4, and the meniscus 5 is configured to cover the first cavity or the second cavity by rotation. A scale mark 3 is provided on the outside of the body 1, and the left half of the scale mark 3 extends to the left side of the transparent vertical partition 2, and the right half extends to the right side of the transparent vertical partition 2.

[0024] By implementing the above technical solution, when using the measuring cylinder, the meniscus 5 is first flipped over the first cavity to cover the first cavity, the meniscus 5 is pressed by hand, and one type of rice or coarse grain is measured using the second cavity. Then, the meniscus 5 is flipped over the second cavity to cover the second cavity, the meniscus 5 is pressed by hand, and one type of rice or coarse grain is measured using the first cavity. After measuring, the measuring cylinder is straightened and shaken to observe the amount of both by the naked eye or by reading the amount of the scale mark 3. The two varieties can be clearly compared under the transparent housing, which is simple and quick. At the same time, the same scale mark 3 can be used for measuring both the first cavity and the second cavity, simplifying the production process of the measuring cylinder.

[0025] In this embodiment, notches 8 are provided at both ends of the meniscus 5. A rotating shaft 6 is provided on the side of the notch 8 parallel to the shaft seat 4. The rotating shaft 6 is rotatably disposed in the shaft hole. This arrangement allows the meniscus 5 to avoid the shaft seat 4 through the provided notches 8 when rotating.

[0026] In this embodiment, the outer side of the shaft seat 4 is provided with a first arcuate surface 10 coaxial with the shaft hole; the side of the notch 8 perpendicular to the shaft seat 4 is provided with a second arcuate surface 7 coaxial with the first arcuate surface 10, and the diameter of the second arcuate surface 7 is larger than the diameter of the first arcuate surface 10. This arrangement allows the side of the notch 8 perpendicular to the shaft seat 4 to fit more closely with the first arcuate surface 10 when the meniscus 5 rotates. The diameter of the second arcuate surface 7 is slightly larger than the diameter of the first arcuate surface 10. When the meniscus 5 is closed, rice or whole grains cannot leak out of the gap between the first arcuate surface 10 and the second arcuate surface 7.

[0027] In this embodiment, the meniscus 5 includes a straight segment provided at the inner end and an arc segment provided at the outer end, and the outer side surface of the straight segment is provided as a third arc surface 9. The provision of the third arc surface 9 allows the straight segment to better match the top of the cylinder 1 and the partition 2, and prevents the meniscus 5 from hitting the top of the cylinder 1 and the top of the partition 2 when rotating.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to further provide a configuration method for the third arc surface 9 , the third arc surface 9 is aligned with the outer side surface of the rotating shaft 6 .

[0029] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
